Обсуждение: What happend to odbc.sql & odbc-drop.sql
I am attempting to use the directions at http://kandalaya.org//download/oo-pgsql.html to configure odbc with pgsql and OpenOffice.org on a Fedora Core 4 system. I found a message at: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-odbc/2003-09/msg00087.php which points to the psqlodbc cvs, but that appears empty. And when I got psqlodbc-08.01.0100.tar.gz (that is the correct one to use with postgresql-8.0.6 right?) and looked in it, there was no mention of the odbc.sql & odbc-drop.sql scripts, or even what should replace them. So is there a reason why these went away? What should they be replaced with? Or should I just dig out an old copy of postgresql-7.X and grab them from there for posterity? -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter

It was removed because it is no longer required: http://cvs.pgfoundry.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/psqlodbc/psqlodbc/convert.c? rev=1.117&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup Regards, Dave.

I would guess so, but I have no knowledge of that document.

Thanks, but as you're the first person I recall to ever ask that
question, I don't think it really counts as a faq :-) An update to the
kandalaya document would seem more appropriate.

No, that's maintained by Majordomo, the mailer software. I'm not sure if
we can change that - I'll ask the admin.
Thanks, Dave.
